Dalton's Bond brings the British spy much closer to the head and heart of a real character.

The relative clarity of the story allows director John Glen and screenwriters Richard Maibaum and Michael G. Wilson to inject moments of subtlety and human interest -- commodities that in recent Bonds have been in even shorter supply than sense.

Dalton shows a serious side that's been missing from the role since Sean Connery's earliest 007 days. And as a whole, the new picture is less of a special-effects affair than most of Roger Moore's Bond films.
October 20, 2015
Despite being hampered by an overly convoluted plot and two of the feeblest Bond villains ever (greedy buffoons Koskov and Whitaker don't have a quantum of menace between them), Dalton brings much-needed grit to the role.

The result is a film that is not so much bad as mechanical and uptight.

In The Living Daylights, Dalton establishes his claim to the role; in the films that will follow, he'll have the chance to dig deeper.

Expect the expected.

As with other Bond movies, the locations in The Living Daylights are more remarkable than its plot.

Just what the franchise needed to become more culturally relevant as the 1990s approached.
October 20, 2015
This was Timothy Dalton's debut as 007 and it was already pretty clear that he lacked the necessary ironic touch that made the credibility-straining action seem fun rather than ridiculous.
October 20, 2015
I feel just rotten about this, but I'm afraid I've outgrown James.
October 20, 2015
Why not send James off to well-earned retirement with a gold-plated martini shaker and the thanks of a grateful moviegoing public?
